“Here I Am”
Here I am,
Simply an unpredictable man,
So strong and unafraid, so quick and so brave,
Or so they say,
I think of this every day in many ways,
Counting down my lonesome days,
Dazed, tired, defeated
Every person I have spoken with retreated,
Apparently in conceded,
They have depleted the once needed treat indeed,
I only wish to meet someone so we can speak,
But this feeling, is no longer appealing,
The people whom I have held so close,
Are no longer mine to love or to boast,
Have a toast; the man they say was vain
Is no longer one contain,
I am no longer captivated by love…,
No longer the same…
